Reviews for Pocahontas
Disney is always great about re-releasing their classics, but each time, something new is in store.
Kids will love it, teenagers may stop sneering long enough to appreciate it, and adults won't be able to keep themselves from bawling over it.
The paucity of plot is thankfully balanced by some of the most successful animal comic relief to come out of a Disney studio.
It will not raise our consciousness of history any better, but it may inspire us to get along with one another all the more. Fair enough. (Special Edition DVD set)
